Very cool! Can you tell us more about what broke? Did it slow you down afterwards since you couldn't repair, only remove?

thank you, yes the rear sway bar mount ripped apart... Jeep used Press Nuts to hold it to the frame, that is a really bad idea, they should have used gold old normal bolts, if they did this would have never happened... Jeep is at the dealer, and their techs have to re-weld the bracket and fix this, if they cant, then i will use a normal bolt and nut on it, but this is something that will break on all lifted JT if not corrected.. This should have never happened, and its not caused by the lift, just bad design.

Ram, LJ,
It doesn't look like the actual hole in the rock road, but an actual trail? I remember going there about 10 years ago and it was slightly more than a fire road. Either it's eroded like crazy or not maintained or something. Or maybe a
different "hole in the rock"?

Looks like a good time. So was that the rear sway bar endlink mount that broke? Was that specific to your lift or is that the factory mount? I ask because I haven't received my JT yet, so I can't go look myself.

Do you like the rims you chose? I was looking at those exact ones and was wondering if you would recommend them.

Awesome! I was thinking of going with Nitto Ridge Grapplers, as that seems to be the popular choice here in Southern WV......hope it works out! Thanks for the info!
